Connect Broadband to Raspberry pi b model

Creating a bug report/issue

I have searched the existing open and closed issues

Required Information

  • DietPi version | cat /boot/dietpi/.version
  • Distro version | echo $G_DISTRO_NAME $G_RASPBIAN
  • Kernel version | uname --all
  • Architecture | dpkg --print-architecture
  • SBC model | echo $G_HW_MODEL_NAME or (EG: RPi3)
  • Power supply used | (EG: 5V 1A RAVpower)
  • SD card used | (EG: SanDisk ultra)

Additional Information (if applicable)

  • Software title | (EG: Nextcloud)
  • Was the software title installed freshly or updated/migrated?
  • Can this issue be replicated on a fresh installation of DietPi?
    ← If you sent a “dietpi-bugreport”, please paste the ID here →
  • Bug report ID | echo $G_HW_UUID

Steps to reproduce

Extra details

  • …Whenever I try and connect to the internet to the computer nothing seems to happen so their any guide or tips which can help me here?

Did you scan for WiFi networks?

Yes I did try, but nothing seems to be coming up so far.

pls share the system details. You missed to fill the trouble shooting template.

I am not really sure what you mean I give you the Raspberry Pi model b and then I download the recommended software according to Raspberry Pi Imager software.

Would be simply better if I go back to Raspberrry Pi own OS since I found whenever I try with this OS it never worked it just gives me errors all the time?

if you have some errors, share them with us

I mean the template you ignored.

  • DietPi version | cat /boot/dietpi/.version
  • Distro version | echo $G_DISTRO_NAME $G_RASPBIAN
  • Kernel version | uname --all
  • Architecture | dpkg --print-architecture
  • SBC model | echo $G_HW_MODEL_NAME or (EG: RPi3)

This is simply copy / past of the commands.

I do assume you flashed our RPi 1 Trixie image. Since the RPi 1 has no onboard WiFi, which USB WiFi adapter do you use?

Do I understand it right, that scanning for WiFi networks returns an empty list? Does this command not return anything either?

iw dev wlan0 scan

If so, please check for kernel errors:

dmesg -l 0,1,2,3

And do I understand it right that the same WiFi adapter on the same RPi 1 works with RPi OS? If so, does the above command then return something there? We use the same kernel and firmware, and iw really is an absolute low-level tool, so it would be strange if that was not able to detect your SSID(s) somehow, while NetworkManager (the high-level network tool on RPi OS) is. But to compare (on RPi OS):thinking:

nmcli device wifi list

Both tools use the same nl80211 kernel interface, hence should produce identical lists.
